There was good inquiry from elevator
men for cash wheat of the best buyers. Chi
cagO firms were buying freely of certain
grades and prices held up well. Receipts
here were 491 cars and for two days at Du-
luth they were SIC. Shipments from here
were 125 cars. A heavy movement of oats is
noted at present. Local millers were taking
but little wheat and the demand from outside
mills shows decline also. Following are the

Flour-The Market Record says the market
for flour holds steady but quiet with fair
inquiry. There are some sections buying
flour here for delivery at their points whose
buyers are apparently holding up IN their
IL t1.N,v
overstocked, but on the contrary, that they
are provided with quite. moderate supplies.
The large movement of wheat in the North
west has, it seems, led them to look for de-
preston in wheat and consequent easier
prices for -four The experience of a few
yet sticks with flour dealers that it is well to
continue a conservative policy. An advance
does not seem to be imminent, but that 1t
will come later is pretty well assured,
and with it activity is to be expected.
